I’m Sarah.

After graduating college, I worked as a TV news reporter at an NBC affiliate outside of Chicago. I then retired from that life to be a stay at home mom to my three little ones.

So you can follow me on Instagram now! {and you can check out more of my new hair color ;)} I am pretty excited about Instagram-since I am always taking pictures on my phone anyway.
